Philips Eco TV is Environment Friendly and Power Saving

The CES award-winning Philips 42PFL5603D Eco Flat TV is both friendly to the environment as well as your wallet. Commonly known as the Eco TV, this Full HDTV set is RoHS compliant and implement several energy saving features which are sure to cut down on your electricity bills.

Philips Eco TV is RoHS Compliant

RoHS stands for the "restriction on the use of certain hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment". It is a European Directive aiming to control the use of certain hazardous substances in the production of new electrical and electronic equipment (EEE).

RoHS restricts the use of mercury, lead, hexavalent chromium, cadmium and a range of flame retardants notably polybrominated biphenyls and polybrominated diphenyl ethers.

Being RoHS compliant means that Eco TV is virtually free of those harmful substances that are both a danger to your health as well as our environment.

Philips Eco TV Power Saving Features

Philips ECO TV features Dimmable Backlighting technology combined with:

Ambient Light Sensor and Active Content Monitoring
Low standby mode at only 0.15 watt
Consumer selectable Power Saver Mode

Being able to dim the backlight in darker scenes has the dual benefit of saving power and improving black-level contrast. The backlight dimming can be control using a room lighting sensor, so in dark rooms, it will dim down and uses less power. There is also a user selectable power-saving mode which caps the peak backlight output level to save even more power. Those power-saving features can be turned on or off via the viewer control setting.
